Mother Jia of the Red Chamber is Unkind

Qin Keqing's complexion became even worse, she lowered her head with evasive eyes, wishing she could immediately run away with her head in her hands.

Seeing Qin's embarrassment, everyone wondered what Jia's mother said just now, and they had guesses in their hearts.They only dared to hide in bed at night and whisper to their men about gossip about picking up ashes in the underworld.I don't know if it's true or not, and I don't dare to spread it without evidence.Seeing Qin's guilty conscience today, everyone understood that those rumors in the past were not groundless.

Qin Keqing didn't have the face to stay any longer, she found an excuse to leave, and left with a pale face.

The Rong Mansion ceased, and even Jia Zhen, who usually played, did not go out for several days.

Three days later, Jia Zheng and his wife set off for the northwest.The couple bid farewell to Jia's mother early in the morning, and Jia Lian escorted them out of Beijing.After leaving the city, Jia Lian saw off again, and Fang said goodbye to Jia Zheng and his wife.Jia Zheng stopped Jia Lian and told him to take care of Baoyu for help.

"Your grandmother has always been very strict, and your brother Bao loves to be reckless the most. Don't tell him to offend her old man, and help Second Uncle discipline him more on weekdays. When I come back some day, I will thank you."

Jia Lian patted her chest and promised with a smile.

Jia Zheng hesitated for a moment, and said to Jia Lian, "Second Uncle has lived longer than you, and has some experience. As a man, let me tell you the truth, your daughter-in-law is too fine, be careful on weekdays, and leave a future for yourself. hand."

Jia Lian was startled, thinking that Jia Zheng's words to him must be from the bottom of his heart, so he nodded movedly and took the words to heart.

Jia Zheng smiled, patted Jia Lian on the shoulder, said "wait for my letter" and got into the carriage.

Inside the car, Mrs. Wang took a special look at Jia Zheng.

Jia Zheng nodded to her: "I told him everything, let's go."

The carriage drove slowly and started to walk. Gradually, the speed of the team became faster and faster, and they disappeared at the end of the road in a blink of an eye.

Jia Lian turned around and took the people back. When he was about to reach the gate of the city, Jia Lian called everyone to stop.He got out of the car, rode a horse alone, and told the others to return home first.

"If the second grandma asks, she will say that I stopped by Zhuangzi to check the accounts."

All the boys agreed and advanced to the city.Jia Lian led the horse and waited at the gate of the city for a long time, making sure that the group of people looked down on him, so he dared to enter the city and went straight to the Zhuangyuan Building.

Room No. [-] in Tianzi, where Jia Zhenjia Rong and his son were waiting.

Jia Lian came in angrily, crying for his father and mother at the first sentence. "What's going on now, you two dare to look for me!"

"I have something important to do." Jia Zhen laughed.

Jia Lian gave him a disgusted look, and scolded: "I know how much trouble you have caused in our house a few days ago. If my old lady knew that I saw you in private, she would not have skinned me."

"It scares you, you're just an old lady. Besides, I asked you out early, didn't you get seen by others, what are you afraid of?" Jia Zhen smiled.

Jia Lian nodded, but he didn't dare to be seen, not even a servant.The old lady made something of an internal report, which is really scary.Ever since I got that thing, I really can't hide anything.He used to be more careful in front of his wife, but now he even has to guard against those servants!

"Quickly say something, and I'll leave after I finish."

"No hurry," Jia Zhen held Jia Lian back, ordered food and wine to be served, and laughed and said to Jia Lian while eating.

After drinking for three rounds, Jia Lian finally understood what Jia Zhen meant. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked Jia Zhen, "Do you want to reconcile with Rongfu?"

Jia Zhen smiled awkwardly and nodded.

"This is interesting. A few days ago, you brought Jia Dairu to mess around in our mansion, which set the old lady on fire for a long time. Now you want to reconcile? If you knew today, why did you pick things up in the first place? ? Even my father was offended by you!"

"Brother, you are considerate of me, don't I just want to understand. Is it too late to make up for it?" Jia Zhen looked at Jia Lian expectantly.

Jia Lian frowned, and simply shook his head at Jia Zhen.

Jia Zhen tugged at his arm, begging him to help her, and promised him many benefits.What Jia Lian heard, hesitated for a while, but still didn't dare to answer.The old lady's side is not kidding, he has learned enough lessons, and he dare not make up his own mind anymore.

Jia Zhen dropped her wine glass pretending to be angry, and said to Jia Lian, "It's a pity that I loved you in the past, but now I'm begging you, but you are ungrateful."

Jia Lian also has a temper, so he didn't buy Jia Zhen's bluff and got up to leave.Jia Zhen hurriedly asked her son Jia Rong to stop him and made up for her mistake.

Jia Lian was helpless by the father and son, and stared at Jia Zhen, "Suddenly want to reconcile, what is your purpose?"

"I heard that Uncle Xi got an official position, and your second uncle was promoted and transferred. Look at me, you can't embarrass the Jia family, right?"

Jia Lian understood Jia Zhen's purpose. He wanted to be an official.If people don't know how much they are, it's really troublesome.

Jia Rong poured wine for Jia Lian with a smile and said, "Second Uncle Lian, please help my father."

"I don't know what to do, who can I help?" Jia Lian was in a hurry, reached out to spill the wine, explained to his father and son that he was not capable, turned around and left, no one could stop him.

The plan carefully prepared by Jia Zhen and his son just fell through.Jia Zhen was so angry that she blamed Jia Rong who came up with the idea.Getting upset, he went up and kicked Jia Rong's belly.

"Useless things!"

Jia Rong was in pain, and she coaxed Jia Zhen with a forced smile: "Isn't it just a broken official, we will save a lot of trouble if we don't do it. Master, isn't it good now?"

"You know what!" Jia Zhen returned home angrily.Knowing that the result was unsatisfactory, You Shi sighed twice, but did not dare to say anything.

"I'm the patriarch, but now the people in the clan look up to Rong Mansion, and they respect me more than me. Their reputation is getting higher and higher. As for me, I'm nothing in their eyes!" Jia Zhen complained angrily.

Youshi listened silently, not daring to say anything.Jia Zhen is not easy to serve, and if she is not persuaded, she is guaranteed to be scolded. It is better not to persuade her to be safe.

After Jia Zhen finished her anger, she complained to Youshi: "You don't even try to persuade me!"

"I'm not capable of helping the master, and I dare not add trouble to the master." Youshi said submissively.

Jia Zhen glanced at her, very annoyed.He waved his hand, turned around and went to play with some pretty maids.

Jia Lian was late in returning to the mansion, and after repeated precautions, he was invited by someone sent by the old lady.Jia Lian had a guilty conscience, and didn't know whether Jia's mother was clear, so she obediently and truthfully explained Jia Zhen's private appointment to ask him for an official.

"Grandson didn't dare to answer, and besides, grandson doesn't have the ability."

Jia's mother looked at Jia Lian with admiration, nodded and said, "You did the right thing."

When Jia Lian received Jia's mother's praise, she felt elated in her heart, even happier than marrying a beautiful concubine.

Mother Jia worried that even if Mrs. Wang left, she might not stop before she left.I'm afraid she will make a fuss about Wang Xifeng and his wife.Wang Xifeng is intelligent, knows current affairs and knows how to listen to her.Jia's mother was worried that Jia Lian would be confused.

"Did your second uncle and aunt explain anything to you before they left?"

Jia Lian's eyeballs moved, and he replied in a slow tone, "No."

"If you're not sure, you have it." Jia Mu laughed, her sharp eyes forced Jia Lian to have nowhere to go.

Jia Lian bowed his head and admitted his mistake, and honestly explained everything Jia Zheng said before he left.

"This is obviously to drive a wedge between you and your wife, and between us," Mother Jia asserted.

Jia Lian hurriedly knelt down to express his feelings, "Grandson absolutely doesn't have that kind of thought."

"It's good to talk about it, but there is mutual suspicion in your heart, and it is easy to create gaps. Although you don't like reading, you have always been clever. You should think about the big picture in everything, not the small things. I don't say How well you listen to your daughter-in-law, and you don’t persuade your husband and wife to listen to me. Even if you go back, it’s a good comparison. When you lived with your second uncle and aunt, what benefits did you gain, and what did you do with me? Compare After that, you will have real knowledge." Jia Mu guided Jia Lian with a few words, and then sent him back to think for himself.The most stupid way to win people's hearts is to rely on words, so that even the people who win people are not reliable.To really give benefits and sweetness to others, and let them have a self-conscious loyalty, this is what Jiamu wants.

Jia Lian and his wife are the most effective executors of Jia Mu in Rongfu.She needs these two.

When Jia Lian came out of Jia Mu's room, he understood what he had in mind.Thinking about it carefully, the old lady beat him twice in addition to being stricter on weekdays.The sweetness for him is indeed more than others.Not only that, Jia Lian also learned a lot of knowledge because of this, such as managing accounts, managing Zhuangzi and so on.He is pragmatic, and he is more and more respected in this family. Even Wang Xifeng treats him differently and becomes gentler day by day.

Jia Lian regretted slapping herself, she really shouldn't have listened to the provocative words of the second uncle, she was so confused.

"Second Master is back!" Ping'er shouted with a smile.

Wang Xifeng hurriedly put down her work and came out to welcome her. "Why is it so late? I asked someone to leave ginseng soup for you, so you can make up for it. Ping'er, go and bring it."

Jia Lian froze, looked up at his flirtatious wife, and reached out to touch her fair face.

Wang Xifeng's face turned red suddenly, thinking in her heart that the old lady's teachings were really good, and she could be gentle with her men occasionally in order to win his heart!

Wang Xifeng changed Jia Lian's clothes with a smile.Jia Lian felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction in his heart, grabbed Wang Xifeng's hand, bowed his head and kissed it...

When Jia's mother learned that Jia Zhen was planning to become an official, she was afraid that he would not give up.Jia Zhen knew that her old woman couldn't do it, so she would definitely start with someone else.I'm afraid Jia Lian is just the beginning.Mother Jia didn't dare to slack off, so she quickly found Jia Amnesty and Lin Ruhai, and told them to pay attention.

Lin Ruhai understands the general sense, but can understand a little bit.It was more difficult for Jia Amnesty, he said that he might still be angry with Jia Zhen at this moment, and when Jia Zhen fooled him with beautiful women, Jia Amnesty would most likely succumb.

Mother Jia and Jia Amnesty emphasized again and again: "Don't make it look like you have never seen a woman before, and you will lose the face of the Rong Mansion! You have just become an official, the most important thing is to stabilize yourself first. You can't help anyone, when the time comes Don't go around and offend people for his official position, be careful that you can't afford to walk around!"

"Don't worry, son, don't worry!" Jia She promised.

Jia Mu was not at ease, and added another layer of firmness. "If you dare to make your own decisions, go to the northwest with your second brother!"

Jia Amnesty shuddered and nodded, this time he really remembered.By the way, I complained in my heart: The old mother is really unkind, she doesn't love her own son!

Before Lin Ruhai left, Mother Jia mentioned Daiyu's birthday to her: "Come here to celebrate her birthday. There are many sisters here, and it's also very lively."

Lin Ruhai smiled and said yes, "Son-in-law also means the same thing. I planned to discuss it with you in a few days, but I asked you to mention it first."

Jia Mu pondered for a while, then raised her eyes and said to Lin Ruhai: "There are some things I shouldn't have said, but after thinking about it, I should talk more about you. I heard from Lin girl that you dismissed the aunts and concubines around you a long time ago. Didn't you mean to continue the string?"

"Yes." Lin Ruhai replied.

Jia Mu frowned, looked at Lin Ruhai's thin body, and suddenly changed the topic. "I know an imperial physician in the palace who is good at recuperating people's bodies. I will go to your house to see a doctor for Miss Lin in a few days. By the way, you should also recuperate. Your body is too thin."

Lin Ruhai raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Mom, what do you mean—" It's not just as simple as taking care of your body, right?

Jia Mu's gaze was like a torch, and she clearly uttered two words: "Continue Xian."
